Description
Athletic performance improvement depends on a program of exercise to stimulate muscular and cardiovascular adaptation followed by a recovery period in which the body rebuilds itself slightly more fit than before. Thus, the real gain of exercise occurs during recovery, but only in the presence of adequate rest and optimal nutritional support. Carbohydrate and protein replenishment, as soon as possible upon completion of your workout, helps you to get the very most out of every minute you’ve put into training. That’s where Recoverite comes in, providing unsurpassed nutritional support to ensure you obtain the maximum value from your workouts and complete recovery after each training session and race.
Recoverite supplies carbohydrates and protein in an ideal 3:1 ratio for superior glycogen synthesis and muscle tissue rebuilding, the two main components of recovery. For carbohydrates Recoverite contains only maltodextrin, a complex carbohydrate with a high glycemic index, to ensure rapid metabolism. Unlike most recovery products that contain simple sugars, maltodextrin provides a large volume of easily digested and rapidly assimilated carbohydrate, vital for preventing stomach distress and promoting full, efficient restoration of muscle glycogen.
Recoverite contains only whey protein isolate, which is virtually fat—and lactose—free, and yields the highest percentage of protein. For rebuilding lean muscle tissue and immune system support, whey protein isolate has no peer; it’s simply the purest form of whey protein available. In addition, each serving of Recoverite also contains a potent, recovery-boosting three grams of l-glutamine.
Recoverite supplies other recovery-enhancing nutrients such as ChromeMate® chromium polynicotinate (for maximizing muscle glycogen synthesis) and l-carnosine, a powerful antioxidant and potential anti-aging nutrient. Recoverite also contains a full-spectrum electrolyte profile to replenish depleted essential minerals.
Recoverite is also completely free of any artificial flavors, colors, or sweeteners.
How well you recover today will largely determine your performance tomorrow. When you put as much effort into the recovery process as you do for active training, you’re way ahead of the game and you will no doubt enjoy improved performance. Along with adequate rest, it’s vitally important to refuel your body as soon as possible after every training session and race. Using Recoverite, you can be assured that you’re giving your body exactly what it needs. Recoverite is the right product with the right formula to provide your body with the right amounts of the right nutrients, ensuring rapid and complete recovery from all of your workouts and races.

When you compete in multi-day events and stage races it’s important to starts refuelling for your next event / stage as soon as soon as you finish the stage, if not during the latter stages of the race itself. I use Hammer Recoverite to get carbohydrate and protein into my system within the “golden glycogen window” i.e. 30 minutes from the moment I cross the finish line. I often add some crushed flax seed for additional polyphenols / antioxidants and omega 3 and chia seeds for some additional omega 3, iron, magnesium and ALA (alpha-linolenic acid). Remember: The finish line is the start of your next race!

Recently upped my training levels and paid a lot of attention to nutrition, hydration, stability, and strength exercises. Started to use the chocolate flavoured Recoverite on the advice of others, and found I felt so much more ‘ready to go’ at the following day’s training. Just finished an extended block of 6 out of 7 training days per week, and I religiously used Recoverite within 45mins of finishing. It helped my recovery and keeps me ready to go the following day. Great flavour and taste. It’s now a must have in my Hammer products.

I was a bit sceptical before trying this because I was almost certain that I wouldn’t really notice much of a difference, or I would convince myself of an improvement due to the placebo effect. Boy was I ever wrong. I usually do a few hard rides on the weekend, and every Monday I am drained and have sore/weak legs. After having recoverite after my rides on Saturday and Sunday, not only was I more energized than usual for the rest of the day on Sunday, but I was also able to back it up and go for a hard ride on Monday which is unheard of for me. The salted caramel flavour is surprisingly tasty… I blended it with milk, a little honey and a pinch more salt and it was creamy and delicious. Highly recommend. My only regret is not trying this a decade ago.
